The study you cite from the BBC is three years old. Do you have a link to the study so that we can read it? Do you know if any additional studies have been done in the last three years that could confirm or challenge this premise?

I know that Britons and Anglo-Saxons have different markers, but my reading of the most recent scientific literature suggests that the marker for Britons (R1b) is found not only in Wales and Ireland but also in England itself.
